How can you leave me standing - alone in a world that's so cold
Mabye I'm just too demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father - too bold
Mabe your just like my mother - she's never satisfied
Why do we scream at each other
This is what it sounds like when doves cry
[Chorus]
How can you leave me standing
(standing) - alone in a world that's so cold
Mabye I'm just too demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father - too bold
Mabe your just like my mother - she's never satisfied
Why do we scream at each other
This is what it sounds like when doves cry
This is what it sounds like
This is what it sounds like
This is what it sounds like
Drean if you will a courtyard - an ocean of violets in bloom
Animals strike curious poses - They fell the heat - the heat between me and you
Mabe your just like my mother - she's never satisfied
Why do we scream at each other
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry...
When doves cry
When doves cry
When doves cry
Uhhh...
[Chorus]
How can you leave me standing
(standing) - alone in a world that's so cold
Mabye I'm just too demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father - too bold
Mabe your just like my mother - she's never satisfied
Why do we scream at each other
This is what it sounds like when doves cry
